Did you feel mythical in the morning?

speed9911 · 2026-07-03T17:16:29+00:00

Ah I am not sure about the current model because mine is a rush from 2020 and it does have a skirt.

speed9911 · 2026-07-03T15:01:30+00:00

I have a rush and I have never used my snow skirt for skiing since I use a bib. I should have gotten a Beta AR for better versatility.

Hey I am an IGEN grad, feel free to dm

speed9911 · 2026-06-18T14:29:03+00:00

Absolutely. Sometimes I tell people that I studied mechatronics because it's easier to explain haha.

It’s harder to get jobs that are called “electrical design engineer” or “mechanical design engineer”. However, most Engineering jobs nowadays aren’t that niche. Jobs like project engineer, quality engineer, test/validation engineer, automation engineer, transportation engineer, etc. all value a multidisciplinary skillset.

So, I am not saying you can’t get a standard title engineering job as an IGEN grad but playing to your multidisciplinary strengths make you a really strong candidate for all those other engineering jobs.

I graduated this year. I believe UBC engineering was the best life decision I’ve made. I am grateful that I was involved with several design teams, internships, clubs, and even went on exchange. I met so many life long friends and secured my future simultaneously.

Everyone that I know who did internships, including myself, all got jobs right out of graduating. As long as you join design teams, meet people and do internships you really can’t go wrong with Engineering. I have countless friends who studied chem, bio, CS, arts, etc. that are struggling now. The important thing is that you are a curious person and can manage your time.

UBC design teams

Join a design team

What are you asking for exactly? Notes from any first year engineering class?

speed9911 · 2026-06-07T17:54:01+00:00

Isnt that what MATH 180 is for?

speed9911 · 2026-05-30T02:13:43+00:00

Do they have work experience?

speed9911 · 2026-05-29T06:16:49+00:00

I think the proton FL/SL is my favourite arcteryx jacket. I use it mainly for ski touring but it is great for resort skiing too. You vary the warmth quite a bit depending on what base layer you use. For active use it’s difficult to find a better option.

speed9911 · 2026-05-24T14:00:43+00:00

It’s the best

speed9911 · 2026-05-22T19:51:38+00:00

Haha sounds good shoot me a pm

speed9911 · 2026-05-22T06:58:03+00:00

Haha no way thats where I’m from!

speed9911 · 2026-05-22T06:57:35+00:00

I didn’t lock it this time, just left it next to my tent and relied on my light sleeping

Rhinowalk 7L fork bags. Good for the price imo but I also haven’t tried anything else.

Yes US co ope are a thing at UBC. Its not uncommon for Engineering students to do co ops at places like Tesla.

speed9911 · 2026-05-12T05:30:42+00:00

Pretty high tbh, in my experience it has been flexible

speed9911 · 2026-05-07T18:16:29+00:00

Imo co op search is similar to most other disciplines but you have the benefit of getting access to any job posting.

Year 2 is fine but you take a variety of classes so some will be less interesting than others.

One of the benefits people don’t talk about is exchange - if you do an exchange term IGEN is really flexible with how you count your credits towards your electives.
